EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the zigzags of the famous Grjotlid road in Marok, Norway, around 1905. The image showcases the stunning mountainous landscape as well as the local women known as "mountain milk-maids" who traverse this winding path. Clad in traditional Norwegian attire, these hardworking ladies carry large milk churns on their shoulders using carrying poles. The photograph provides a glimpse into rural life and occupation during that era. The women's eye-catching regional clothing, with its patterned skirts and aprons, adds to the charm of this vintage scene. Their determined expressions show their dedication to their profession as they navigate through this picturesque avenue. The Grjotlid road itself is an impressive feat of engineering, snaking its way along the mountainside. This view highlights both the geographical features of Norway's rugged terrain and the rustic beauty of its countryside. As part of "The Underwood Travel Library - Norway" this stereoscopic card offers viewers a unique perspective on Norwegian culture at that time. It allows us to step back in time and appreciate not only the natural wonders but also the daily lives of people living in remote areas like Marok. This historical photograph from Heritage Images evokes a sense of nostalgia while celebrating both nature's grandeur and human resilience in overcoming challenging landscapes for their livelihoods.
